    That's what my thinking was, based on the phrasing of his question.

    Ding Ding Ding! Correct!
    I suppose that's a fair claim, It's not like there's many other aquariums with jaguars, three-toed sloths and agouti. Since it is branded as an aquarium though, I consider it to be one.

    This zoo held Bornean Orangutans up until 2007 before sending the last pair to a realm of red apes and a jungle temple.

    This has to be Antwerpen, with Tuan going to Chester and Astrid going to Osnabrück, I think

    In the 80s this zoo had an animal that escaped four times out of his enclosure and was found at a children's playground, opposite of a psychiatric clinic in a chickenhouse, on a park bench and in a horse paddock; each time sleeping :D

    The animal in question can only be a Red panda :p. The ones in Rotterdam had an appetite for walking away all the time, so that would be my first guess.

    The animal in question is a LOT bigger and darker than a Red Panda and it did not live in the Netherlands.

    Don't know the animal you are looking for but because we are looking for the zoo and not the animal I will do a guess and because you are living in Cologne I will go for the Cologne Zoo :).

    it is not Cologne but is swirls around the animal I am most interested in. The smallest of the bear species. And I can wholeheartedly rule out Germany as the country the zoo is in.

    It is a sun bear and has never been to the UK either.

    Sabine, I don’t know the story but I knew for sure from the beginning it would be a sun bear :D we are such a pair! My guess would be either a zoo in Czech Republic, France, Switzerland or Austria.
